Message	The engine displaces SEVEN LITERS! That's more than DOUBLE the displacement of our VG. Yet the car weighs less than an NSX? Amazing. 2003 NSX Curb Weight -- 3,153 lbs. 2006 Z06 Curb Weight -- "under 3150" (according to Motor Trend) [ http://www.motortrend.com/features/consumer/112_0502_2006_corvette_z06/ ]
